Blizzard shows off updated Zerg art for StarCraft 2

New StarCraft 2 art shows before and after shots of Zerg units. What has been …

StarCraft 2 is a game that can basically set the standard for hype in the next year or so. The sequel of one of the most loved PC games of all time, created by a company that is known for epic productions and a "ship when it's done" perfectionism, it's hard not to get swept up in how good the game could get.

Blizzard has released a new set of artwork for the game, showing off some of the improvements made to the Zerg faction. After having a chance to play an already-beautiful version of StarCraft 2 at PAX, it's great to see the units only getting better. Take a look at the before and after shots of the Hydralisk, and then peruse the rest of the art made available on the official site.

We'll surely be hearing more about StarCraft 2, and hopefully Diablo 3, at Blizzcon 2009.
